To all whom it may concern:

Be it known'that-I, ALFRED E. Dtrsnr, of Brooklyn, in the county of Kings, and in the State of New York, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Wrapers for Automobile-Tires, &c., and do herey declare that the following is efull, clear, and exact description thereof.

The object of my invention has been to provide awrap or for automobile tires and other similzir s uped objects, which shall have among others, the advantages of being simple and cheap of bein capable of up lication to an annular form ike an uutomoliile shoe, as well as to. a cylindrical form, and of bein so constructedthot it will not separate on expose parts of the shoe or tire or other object being wra ped, hetween-its convolutionsy and to sue ends my invention consists in the wrapper for automobile tires, etc, hereinafter specified.

In the accompanying drawings,

Figure Lis a side elevation 0 an automoed with my wrapper Fig. 2 1s a sectiona view of n portionoi Fig. 1 in the central plane of the tire;

ig. 3 is a planview', and Fig. 4 a'crosssectional view of one form of wrapper em bodying iny invention; I f

Figs. 5 and 6 are, respectivcl a plan view' and a cross-section of another orm of wrapper embod'yingrn" invention. While Ihni'c il ustrated my invention by the embodiments thereof which are the best ltnown to me, such embodiments 'are to be Icgurdcd as typical only, and my invention is not to be confined thereto.

Referring-first to the form of my inven tion shown in Figs. Landflphly invention consistsoi nfstrip'of paper or-snnilat' nonself-sustnining material 1, hnvin shoulders 2 formednt' or near its edges e shoul dots are preferably on opposite sides of'the strip for a reason which will later up car. In the form of my invention shown in *igs. 1 and2, the Shoulders are formed by bending the edges of the strip over upon the body thereof, and in that articular form now being considered, the e ges of the strip 1 pro bent ulong'lines 3 to formv a double edge, which is then hent'over along lines 4,so-tlmt ojs'houldertor bend of double-thick- -ness' of paper is formed nlong'ench edge of the strip. \Vhen the strip is wrapped spirally urcu-nd'thc tire, the strips, as shown in Specification of Letters Eatsnt.

'Application filed December 10, 1915. Serial No. 66,070.

Fig. 2, are overlapped, thedispositions of the shoulders on opposite sides of-the strip infecting a. continuous shoulder. on the forward edge of the stri as itis wound about the tire, thus inter coking the shoulders upon adjacent edges of the neighboring. "turns of the strip. This interlocking of the shoulders prevents the neighboring turns' of the strip separating from each other and exposing the shoe therebetween. The strip is applied to the shoe under .suificient ten sion so thnt the shoulders are prevented from disengaging. v It is obvious that the shoulders on oppo-; site sides of a wrapping strip can be formed in. many different. ways. They can be formed by simply folding over'lthe edge once instead of twice or, as shown in Fi s. 5 and 6, the ed es of t e' strip'may he fol ed over once, a t read or twine 5, being placed. in the fold and the fold, desired, "Being pasted down.

I claim;

' 1. A. temporary wrapper consistin of a strip of non-self-sustnining material aving a shoulder formed along each, edge; the shoulders being upon 0 posite faces of the strip said shoul are having inner sides adapted to overlap and abut" one another when the strip is wrapped about the body to he covered.
